My husband and I had dinner there on Saturday, November 1. I ordered the salmon, which had a much stronger odor than usual for that type of fish. I didn’t want to disrespect the chef by sending the dish back, but unfortunately, I ended up with food poisoning and was sick the entire weekend. Today is...

Wonderful restaurant with a great atmosphere, impeccable service and outstanding food. And they serve dinner later.

The atmosphere. Wonderful.

The service. The most attentive service. We had several servers attending to our every need from food ordering, clearing dishes immediately upon finish...

My appetizer was good (sashimi platter) but my main was very disappointing (jumbo shrimp with corn and fava beans). When I pay 48 for a meal I want at least to be great. The shrimp was overcooked, rubbery and tasteless. Service is a little slow. They took a long time to give us the food menu. Also i...

I've been to Caravaggio twice now and both experiences were fantastic. The food, wine, and cocktail selections are second to none. I was especially impressed by the service staff, they very attentive and freindly. Our server Zelda was very sweet, and knowledgable about the extensive rotating list...

High end restaurant, good for a special occasion. Modern, comfortable space, linen tablecloths, fresh flowers, good acoustics. Food was very good, nice presentation, cooked as ordered. The waiters were extremely attentive to my water and wine glasses, filling them the second they became less than...

Over rated...Do not waste your time and hard earned money. Have dined at Carvaggio several times, each time, unimpressed. Now I understand why! See the below story....

On our recent visit, one of the plates was not as expected and we discussed with the waiter who promptly offered a replacement...

The food here was amazing. Their pasta is definitely one that you need to try when you find yourself in the Upper East Side. The service was also exceptional. Despite it being busy, they made a point to always check in with us and bring More

We came in under dressed and probably not the right age group they are used to. But each of their staff treated us with respect and were extremely willing to help. We even were allowed to order off menu and create a small dish for our toddler that she gobbled up and spilled all over their white line...

good solid Italian food is a great setting. Nothing that adventuresome but good for an expense account dinner--one seating per night so you can linger and talk with your guests-that alone justifies the high prices. Blood orange sorbet was superb--msut have been made earlier in the evening with fre...

This review is long overdue, but, alas, most of us tend to leave rather negative reviews first...this is one of the most memorable experiences we've had in years-decor, service, food were equally enjoyable. Special occasion place for sure.

Anyone looking to have a small wedding in New York City, I highly recommend Caravaggio!

I had my wedding in Central Park, it was a small wedding and I was looking for a nice restaurant with a private area to hold my reception. This place did not disappoint. The amazing Selby helped me arrange ev...

This afternoon my girlfriend and I had lunch at Caravaggio.

The place is elegant, the food is delicious, and the service was gracious and very professional.

I worked in fine dining in Manhattan years ago and used to train "front-of-the-house" staff -- this place has it together!

These days ...

Selected Caravaggio upon the recommendation of friends, and most grateful! The meal was outstanding and the service second to none. Returned to the Carlyle and happily recommended this establishment to the concierge for future guests.

Best Italian restaurant in NY, by far, and one of the top of any type in the city. Food here is a 29. Many unusual preparations you would not see elsewhere, and quality is always extremely high. Bronzino with black truffles is a standout, and their bomboloni is the best in the city. Surprised th...

While this is a good Italian restaurant, it's particularly expensive for what it is and they are always pushing to build the bill. In that way, it's something like its neighbor Nello.........though not as aggressive and obnoxious in the way they do it. I always get the discomforting sense that it's ...

Over priced Italian food. Presentation is good but taste can use some improving.
The attitude by the owner/manager can be rude/strong and might become an issue if you don t know how to handle it. Even while eating or have already order food they seem to want to rush you to get everything and go, ho...

We dined at Caravaggio with another couple. Most depressing experience to not be repeated. At best a mausoleum with a very old crowd, some elders using walkers or even canes. Terrible service, buffonish waiters, overpriced, the food is not from any region of Italy, it is more a ripp off/imitation of...

We dined there for staff dinner. My impression is that this restaurant is still locked in an older era for traditionally table attention, decor and patrons. but for food delivery it was disappointing.
For such pricey menus... we were expecting to be wowed with both presentation and taste

Caravaggio is in the top 5 if not top 3 Italian restaurants in NYC! The service is nothing short of amazing - not overbearing - unseen - but constant service. The food quality is fantastic and standard menu or specials promise NOT to disappoint. If you're looking for a supreme experience - this is t...

A place that will create a party of flavor in your mouth. One of the best restaurant in N.Y.C!!!
One thing that has to be noted, the service at this restaurant was incredible. We where two adults with four children. Everyone had a fabulous experience!!
